What are the 5 screens you visit most often?

Post by puresimmer »

I'm looking to streamline the user interface for 2008, with a focus on making the association home page as useful as possible (thus reducing clicks).

What are the 5 screens/dialogs you access most frequently?

Follow-up: What would you like to see on the home screen that you personally feel would reduce the click-fatigue?

Lets see; modify rosters, minor league, injuries, game schedules. Then Stats, PSPN, Almanac, Mods. Seldom use deals/moves, standings, highlights or players (only when I want to generate my own player).

It all depends on how one plays. An everyday manager might have a different selection from a weekly or monthly simmer.

For an everyday manager, the number one thing is keeping track of your players' health. That's self-evident now.

Perhaps a choice of quick access menus could be offered when an association is set up. All menus are displayed during association setup, and the player chooses which three or four or five to display in sequence. Each time you hit "enter", the next item in your "quick access" list is displayed.

My input on this is that I already really like the current set up for navigating the game. From the 10 or so links across the bottom of the game screen I can get anywhere easily. The only screen that actually requires more than maybe 3-4 total clicks to get to is the "find free agent" screen located in the minor league roster screen.

This game is extremely easy to get around in(imo). I don't see much room for improvent in that area.

what I would most like to see is a one-click button to take you to your home team screen from any of the main menu screens. This is already available on the "Home" screen, but would like to see it added to all the others without having to scroll  the pull-down menu.

I really like the Home screen.  If I'm not simming (watching tv or whatever), I'll leave it on the Home screen and take a look at some of the stuff that scrolls by.   One thing I would like to see is the my division standings on the Home screen.
 
My top 6 screens are Modify Roster & Lineups, Games, Deals & Moves, Statistics and Standings, in that order.

My top four are:

Modify Roster & Lineups
Today's Schedule
Standings
Team Home Page

I'd add a fifth, the proposed
Minor-League promotions/demotions/player movement

screen outlined elsewhere. [;)]

Id probably say:

- "Scores and Schedule"
- the screen from the boxscores
- "PSPN Coverage"
- "Graphical Roster View"/"Organization Chart"
- "Modify Roster and Lineups"

and I spend a TON of time in the almanac
